“white privilege” is really just another complaint about those who push the concept of class envy or class warfare, within the context of race.
If you were raised by parents that had wealth and taught you to be successful, you have “privilege”. For them it only becomes a bad thing if you are white.
And everybody aspires to acquire that sort of privilege for their progeny to one degree or another. These folks are just envious when others acquire more than they do and look for a “politically incorrect” difference to point out.
Poppycock. They want people to be ashamed for working for high opportunity/civilization/culture, etc.
Back around 1980, I applied for a state job. Was hired and got all the paperwork done and was ready to start the next morning. Got a call at 5 the evening before say they couldn’t hire me because they had to hire a black. That job was listed for many years because not one black applied. So, this cracker was out of a job and no other honkies were allowed to take it. Now, who’s being held down by da man?
“... have the ability … to, um … you know, show emotion and love to their sons without being emasculated.”
What the... Where did that come from and how is loving one’s child even race related? LOL! Bizarre.
I worked in a place where my boss daily/hourly kicked s*&t in my face.
That went on for 15 years! She wanted me to be fired and openly campaigned for it the whole time I worked for her. I am certain no minority female on earth would have tolerated that for 15 minutes.
So-I have to laugh at this kind of thing... where was my white privilege for 15 years? What a joke!
There is “white privilege” My family has it in spades(no pun intended)
Every since we have arrived on American soil(as indentured servants) we have worked, married and had children who obeyed the law
And with the exception of that lil conflict back in 1861, we haven’t had any major problems with the government.
That’s white privilege. It could be just as well as “black privilege”
Or “brown privilege”
Or “Yellow privilege”
Somebody should throw it back in their face by calling out ‘Black Privilege’...................
My wife had the same ‘problem’ at a place she worked once. The supervisor was a racist black woman with a chip on her shoulder. She only wanted blacks on her shift and any white was brow beaten until they quit..................
Was driving home from work yesterday. In front of me was a late-model Mercedes. Bumper sticker on the car said “Black Lives Matter”. Middle-aged black man driving.
SMDH.
White privilege huh?
All us white people are constantly asking each other, “Can ya hep a whitey out?”
My relative was fired after a homo took over the biz. Fired all the heteros and brought in “his own kind”.
I bet he learned very quickly that that was a huge mistake..................
There’s a term in Logic for an assertion that is so vague as to be unprovable (or un-disprovable). “White privilege” is just such an assertion.
My parents would hardly be considered "wealthy" in their day. My father was in his late 30's/early 40's before his income was barely considered "middle class."
Nonetheless, my parents always encouraged me to do the things to become successful, even if they didn't always know what those things were.
we hold the world monopoly on crackers...dang whitey
Same goes for 'dark' matter.
Yeah, I thought that statement was kinda off the wall, too. If that’s a problem for black people, then I don’t know how it can ever get better.
That’s the first thing I thought of when I read the headline.
